R.I.P. Heavy D

According to TMZ, Hip-Hop pioneer Heavy D has passed away. He was 44. Earlier today, he was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital and pronounced dead at 1 P.M. So far, no cause of death. D was seen last month performing at the BET Hip-Hop Awards. Rest In Peace to The Overweight Lover.

He was just at the bet awards doing his thing on stage! He was the final act!

That’s fucked RIP Heavy D

Terrance the future legend MA

This is a serious loss to hip hop and at such a young age. God Bless His Soul and he will live on through mine along with everyone who is danceing to one of his songs, listening to one of the rappers that looked up to him, and hip hop itself. RIP Heavy D

i would switch out all the dead rappers ,and replace,,, these rappin fucks nowadays,, in a heartbeat,,,,wooorrrd!!!!,,,,DAMN SONSOONN!!!!!!

Such a shame.
One of my favs growing up.
Used to do his dance moves in the living room and everything.
Not just a great rapper, but also dope entertainer.
He showed that rap can be fun and positive.
What a sad day. RIP Hev!

@real How can you type *silence* and keep moving? Damn I swear you kids these days too disrespectful. “Big Daddy” “Truthful” and “Don’t You Know” just to name a couple. Oh, never heard of these songs? Then you’re too young. Remove yourself from this post.

@ronnieColeamn just say RIP and keep it moving. Doesn’t matter if YOU don’t think he was a legend, MILLIONS of ppl do. Check the TTs on twitter. EVERYONE showing love. Stop hating on the dead.

These lil bad ass kids that got access to the internet are your little bros, nephews and cousins and shit. Little shits need ass whippins man. They wasnt even born when Heavy was doing his thing. Or they were really small.

RIP to a real rap Legend.

Pete Rock and CL its been nearly 20 years since T.R.O.Y., time to bless it one more time for the homie Heavy D

Death comes in 3s must be true, but this don’t even feel right. I heard something about respiratory issues, but IDK, Heav’ was working it out on that BET shit? If you ain’t over 25, you can’t even really fuck wit Heavy D like we did growing up, RIP

Big Ups to a Tru Mt. Vernon Legend, I would like to say Thank you for all you did to keep Uptown in a positive light. From Mt Vernon High, to the block party stages you entertained us on, The stages around the world. Even as of a few days ago with the positive tweets always encouraging positivity. You will be missed Dwight. Mt Vernon will never forget you. You will live on in our hearts and souls.
One Love !!
